Traditional “luxurious, super-soft flannel fleece” is generally not considered eco-friendly or sustainable because it is primarily made from 100% synthetic polyester. While its durability and warmth are appealing, its environmental impact is significant due to its petroleum-based origins and microplastic shedding.
@mediocrebot Im guessing the movie reference was The Edge!?! Pretty good movie! My 13yo self thought when it came out, and still do. So glad they finally managed to get that damn bear!
Based on searching for that model number + robe it seems like this is 88x22 which is nice and long but doesn’t seem like you could really wear it like a robe. people on Amazon are referring to it as a “scarf” which is weird. Think I’ll pass
Back when Snuggies were first being advertised on TV, we got a package in the mail with 2 of them inside. No hint anywhere of who sent them. We got a little paranoid for a bit, checking our accounts to see if either of us had weird charges, but we didn’t find anything. A mystery gift, I guess. We never used them & I finally gave them away.
@KlfJoat@mehcuda67
I never got any either and I’ve been here (and VMP) over 10 years. But then again I never really checked their emails. Maybe I was supposed to request them??
I thought they were cool… well, actually a bit warm for our fiery 6-month-long Florida summer. But Mrs. News took one look, and shouted “Dowdy!” which puts the kibosh on the deal.
@chienfou@username it’s more like a scarf with pockets, “blanket” definitely implies something you can cover your body with. we will find a use for it I’m sure, regardless.

@medz Here’s the image you requested for “the chillest dude ever living his best life while wearing a robe. [object Object]”
What are the dimensions of this? Size of the socks? What are the actual materials used to manufacture? This is one mysterious offer!

This looks like a job for the Snuggler …

I salute your inventive spirit, but these look awful. Pass
(Speaking of awful what ever happened to that commenter who opened every thread attacking AI?)
@dpease His RAM was reallocated to a data center.

Shhhh… Don’t raise that one from the dead!

@techpawpad yeah i noticed in the pics you could see it didnt go all the way around to the back. Kinda pointless if you ask me
@techpawpad Looks like they’re sized for Randy Newman’s nemeses.
/youtube short people
@PurrpetualNap @techpawpad you don’t have a need for a bathroom shawl?
Glenn looks like he’s having a good day
@unksol Now how did they not include Glen in any of these photos?!? Harrrumph!
@Kyeh he’s just hiding his face. Which… Glenn… We already knew you were into foot stuff. It’s. Fine
@unksol Hmm, well - he’s also changed his stripes, then! Glen is red & white!
@Kyeh some people do under the right conditions for the right person lol. IDK what an anthropomorphic sock puppet is into.
Given the lack of size information, it’s pretty clear that the socks are “one size fits some - maybe.”
Dry clean?? Nope.
@Pamela I prefer my clean to be wet ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

@Kyeh And did you also give them away anonymously? Or just accept blame?
@phendrick Well, I donated them to a charity, so it was anonymous, I guess.
Socks are wearable? Who knew?
@phendrick not after I’m done with it
Remember when Meh used to do special things for VMPs like send them free socks?
@KlfJoat I never got socks! I think I may have joined VMP after the honeymoon was over.

Lol. “Robe” should have been in quotes in title. Whatta scam.
Packaging doesn’t use robe keyword anywhere
It’s a towel with pockets
@username
Maybe STOLE would have been a better choice of descriptive.
@username yeah this was disappointing. none of the pictures made me think it was like this.
@big_onion @username
I can see why you were confused. The writeup was a bit “non-descriptive” as to the format.
@chienfou @username it’s more like a scarf with pockets, “blanket” definitely implies something you can cover your body with. we will find a use for it I’m sure, regardless.
@big_onion
Agreed. Maybe use as a boa constrictor blanket?
